Review on Black WeChip R2 Air Remote With Voice And Backlit Keyboard - 2.4G Wireless For Android TV Box, PC, Projector, And HTPC (Not Compatible With Smart TV) by Christopher Shavers

The original remote was one of my all-time favorites but the 4-way pad was starting to require multiple presses. This G20 remote worked right out of the box and does all the functions of the original. I prefer the thinness and the touch sensitive volume control of the original but they are not available. This will be a good replacement. It has a very low quality feel to it so I might order a spare. For some reason I had to try the microphone three times to do a voice search but once it started working it seems ok now. I like the accelerometer mouse function. The original remote didn't have that and made certain apps inconvenient so in that respect this is better than the original.UPDATE: I was wrong about the mic taking three tries. That was just a fluke. Sometimes the mic works, sometimes it doesn't. I can't figure out a pattern but I suspect a firmware bug over a hardware problem. If the mic functionality, voice search, etc. is important to you, maybe consider a different remote.UPDATE2: Within a couple of days this remote's behavior became so erratic that it is virtually unusable. Occasionally it works fine but most of the time when you click a button it will take from 5 to 20 seconds to respond and then it will send the command many times. For example to go to the next item in a list menu I click down and it sits there for a while, then goes down 3 or 10 or 20 lines down the list. Same thing with every keystroke. I have tried different batteries. Sometimes taking the batteries out for a minute will get a couple of good keystrokes before it goes out of its mind again. I know it is the remote because my Shield does not exhibit this behavior with the old remote.UPDATE3: I returned the G20 remote and received a replacement but it exhibited the same erratic behavior. Once in a while it works for a while but then it starts going crazy with long delays and sending many commands in response to a single keypress. I finally gave up and returned the remote. I will go back to using my original remote even though the keypad Right function is wearing out.
